Unfortunate moment yesterday too, when the Breaking News strap briefly said 'FREDDY TRUEMAN HAS DIEF '.

For anyone wondering what happened to Vivien Creegor, appears she has designs on Hollywood Shocked

This is the last week of the old schedule, and one of the things I'll miss about it is Martin & Anna Jones doing SNT. They are a great pair and I don't think Chris Roberts is the right person to replace Martin. It would be better if they put Anna to that new evening show with Martin.

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but it looks like the white 'swoosh' on the ticker is back.

Thank goodness. It looked stupid without it.

Nice to see Sky news UK using the Sky News Ireland set fro interviews more and more now, 3rd time I've seen an interview from the set in a week, looks very professional.

agree completely about martin s and anna j, they've formed a great partnership and they're both top class, i think they should find a way to keep them together.

Sky news needs some consistency and these two would make a great start in providing some.

This afternoons evetns in Valencia, just show how strong the afternoon pairings need to be, and both Julie and Mark are really very good, so now that I'm over Martin and Julie not being paired up again I'm looking forward to Monday, if thats when Julie is going to return.

As for Martin and Anna J, watching them this morning, I really wish they were being keep together, you can't even comapre them Matthew A and Rachel Schofield who were on BBC N24 this morning.

I'm keeping an open mind about Chris, although I have my concerns, I'll never forget when I first started regualarly Sky news, it took me ages to remember his name becasue he has so LITLLE personality - I just think he hasn't got what it takes to present a program that is so informal in its nature.

Julie Etchingham returns in the autumn. No changes to graphics either on Monday, so we are going to be stuck with that god awful title sequence again. Rolling Eyes

I was watching some Drop The Dead Donkey on an old video tape the other day, and couldn't help noticing how the title sequence is uncannily similar to Sky News'.
